Training in Newton-le-Willows

A council pool and a railway past.

The biggest name on Newton-le-Willows' list is the council's own: Newton-le-Willows Health and Fitness on Ashton Road, run by St Helens' Go Active service, with a gym over two floors and a pool. Newton Fitness is the independent alternative, and Newton Sports Club and Vulcan Sports Club are the town's two sports clubs. Hope Acrobatic Gymnastics Club adds something rarer to a town this size.

The town grew up where the Liverpool and Manchester Railway met the line south to Birmingham, and the Vulcan Foundry built locomotives here until 1962. The Sankey Canal runs through under the Nine Arches viaduct, and Haydock Park Racecourse sits on the outskirts. A towpath walk or a run is better shared, and Gymist helps you find someone to do it with.
